Best Deal I have found for winter tires

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
I emailed Simply Tire about the Nokian R3's 235/45 r18.

They are offering tires alone at $1160 + taxes = $1326 mounted/balanced/installed.

If you need rims, they are offering an early-bird package before October 15 with 18" alloy rims and R3's at $1810 + taxes = $2061 installed. TPMS is an extra $300 + tax all around. Here's what the rims look like:

If you're looking at tires other than the Nokian R3's, here's the package pricing with the above rims (add $300 for TPMS). They didn't give me pricing for just tires.

Option 2

So that's pretty much the same price for the nokians as the owners club discount at Kal Tire ($2 cheaper riskt in fact).... Interesting. I winner how much stock they have. I'm still thinking of ordering thru tire rack and having my sister bring them to me.
 
So I'm assuming we should be able to stack the rebate on the owners club discount? I'm assuming it's probably around $80 so an additional $20/tire basically?
Put a 25% deposit on a set of R3s today at Kal Tire and they also mentioned rebate would be coming out in a week or two. I asked if I could stack the rebate against TOCO discount, they said yes . Also asked if I would be eligible with my deposit now, they thought yes as well..

They have 39 in stock now after my deposit.
 
Sorry for the crappy quality. Found it on another site.

Just noticed this ad on Kijiji as well....a quick read through and it does look like some pretty good deals....maybe the folks that were talking about group buy could pool together and get a further discount here?

I would be in for that if there is interest:

Heard back from them. They’re going to look at a group buy for Model 3 owners and let me know in a day or so.
 
Hi all,

@ilikebeef is claiming that he ordered Nokian HR3 at Kaltire with the following breakdown:

4 tires @ 225.75 per tire =1,023
4 Collection fee @ 3.30 = 13.20
4 Installation fee @15 = 60
Total = 1,096.20 before taxes

In the other hand Tony as a TOCO member was charged $275.43 per tire as per invoice he uploaded on Page 7. I'm kind of confused here.
I'm considering either Blizzak LM001 at costco 285.99 or HR3. Obviously $225.75 for HR3 when the reqular price is is no brainer if there is a way to get that deal.
More Information:
Costco charges 4x$11=$44 to change the rubbers and Kaltire charges 4x$32.50= $130.
Costco charges $27 to swap winter to summer tire&rims set.

Your input is very much appreciated.

Can confirm price. Just put down my deposit at Vaughan. They’re selling for cheaper than TOCO price. (so much for just joining...) They were selling like hot cakes. I got third last set and guy behind me got second last.

@VistaM3B

That's a typo should be 255.75 per tire for a tire total of 1023, grand total same 1096.20. I ordered and deposited on that price today at Vaughan.
 
Kal Tire updated me on the status of the R3s as there was a small issue with my order but it has been fixed.

All sets allocated to their location has been sold and there are only 4 sets in reserve right now from Saskatchewan. If anyone wants to order them, there would be a $25 freight charger per tire. (if I remember correctly)

However, they said they are putting in another order from Nokian and are hopeful they will get more in stock before the winter season starts.
